Although Acura is reviving the NSX moniker – a nod to its high-performance sports car built from 1990 to 2005 – the new supercar will have little in common with its namesake.

“After three years of intensive development work we are excited to reveal this next-generation supercar – the Acura NSX – to the world,” said Ted Klaus, chief engineer and global project leader over NSX development. “We’ve developed a human-centered supercar that responds to the will of the driver and that builds upon the NSX heritage.”
